0:00:40 > 0:00:43Whee! Hee-hee-hee-hee!

0:00:43 > 0:00:46Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee!

0:00:46 > 0:00:47Ha-ha-ha!

0:00:47 > 0:00:51Hiya! My new swing's brilliant.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Whee! Hee-hee-hee!

0:00:53 > 0:00:54CREAKING

0:00:54 > 0:00:55What? Oh!

0:00:57 > 0:01:01What happened? Why did my swing break? Hmm.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04When you need to know, go to Okido!

0:01:15 > 0:01:21Hello, Felix! Hello? Felix? Zoe? Where are you?

0:01:23 > 0:01:24BOTH: Hi, Messy!

0:01:24 > 0:01:26BLARGH!

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Nice hiding places, you two.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32Hey, where did these metal trees come from?

0:01:32 > 0:01:36- They're not metal trees, Messy. - They're legs.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39Ho-ho-ho! They're not legs. They're too big!

0:01:39 > 0:01:41STOMP

0:01:41 > 0:01:45Bala bala boom boom! Sorry, didn't see you up there.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47ROBOTIC NOISES

0:01:47 > 0:01:52Meet Stan Tall, Okido's biggest, strongest robot.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57He's going to be helping Zim build a bridge today.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Isn't that right, Stan?

0:01:59 > 0:02:00ROBOTIC NOISES

0:02:00 > 0:02:03We need to get him down to the sea.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06He's got a busy day of bridge-building ahead of him.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10He'll never fit in Okidoodle. Think you can keep up, Stan?

0:02:10 > 0:02:11ROBOTIC NOISES

0:02:11 > 0:02:14Well, we'd better hurry up.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16We only have one day to build a whole bridge.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18WHISTLES

0:02:23 > 0:02:28Race you, Stan! OK, let's ski-doodle, Okidoodle!

0:02:36 > 0:02:40- We won! We won! - Good to see you, Stan.

0:02:40 > 0:02:45- We're going to need all the help we can get.- Oh, don't forget me!

0:02:45 > 0:02:47I can help too.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54If we're going to finish the bridge to the island today,

0:02:54 > 0:02:58- we're going to have to work fast. - It's a long way.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Are you sure a bridge will reach that far?

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Yes. Zoom!

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Bridges are the perfect solution for crossing rivers,

0:03:06 > 0:03:10gaps, or even over the sea to islands.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14How do people get to the island at the moment?

0:03:14 > 0:03:18- By boat, but Billy Barnacle, the boat captain, is

0:03:18 > 0:03:21a bit on the slow side.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24SNORING

0:03:24 > 0:03:26HORN BLARES

0:03:28 > 0:03:31ALL LAUGH

0:03:31 > 0:03:32I see what you mean.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35The mayor thought a bridge might be faster,

0:03:35 > 0:03:41and asked me to design one. Stan, could you fetch the deck

0:03:41 > 0:03:44of the bridge from the workshop, please?

0:03:44 > 0:03:46ROBOTIC NOISES

0:03:46 > 0:03:47CLEARS THROAT

0:03:47 > 0:03:51Isn't it time to let the robot builders know exactly

0:03:51 > 0:03:52what they've got to do, Zam?

0:03:52 > 0:03:58Yes. Yes, I was just about to, Zim. Gather round, gather round.

0:03:59 > 0:04:04Now, this is the design for the bridge we'll be building today.

0:04:04 > 0:04:09- That looks complicated. - Yeah, too complicated if you ask me.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13Why not just stick a really long plank across, like this?

0:04:13 > 0:04:14CREAKING

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Ow!

0:04:16 > 0:04:17Oh.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19A beam bridge, like your plank,

0:04:19 > 0:04:22only works for short distances, Messy.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24If it's too long, it'll snap in the middle

0:04:24 > 0:04:27when something heavy tries to cross.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31Which is why we're making a suspension bridge.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35These cables help to take some of the weight from the middle,

0:04:35 > 0:04:39- so that our bridge won't break. - Hello, everyone.

0:04:39 > 0:04:43Will my new bridge be ready for the grand opening ceremony tomorrow?

0:04:43 > 0:04:47It will. We simply need to stick to the plan.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49ROBOTIC NOISES

0:04:49 > 0:04:55Ah, just in time, Stan. Can you please pop that over there?

0:04:55 > 0:04:56We'll need it later.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00- Everybody ready? - ALL: Ready!

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Then, let's go.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09Whee! Hee-hee-hee!

0:05:09 > 0:05:10Whoo! Ha-ha-ha!

0:05:29 > 0:05:32CHEERING

0:05:32 > 0:05:37Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho! Splendid, simply splendid.

0:05:37 > 0:05:44Oh, thank you, Mayor. I'm pleased to say it all went according to plan.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49- I want to be the first to cross. - Wait, are you sure it's safe?

0:05:50 > 0:05:54- Yes, good point. Is this bridge safe?

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Of course.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00I designed it very carefully.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04I'm sure you did, but we don't want any accidents.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Can it take a really heavy load, for example?

0:06:07 > 0:06:12How about if Stan Tall walked across? He's a very heavy load.

0:06:14 > 0:06:18Hmmm, maybe. I'm still not sure it's a big enough test.

0:06:18 > 0:06:24Oh, he could tread really heavily, or hop across, or skip.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28But where are we going to find a skipping rope long enough?

0:06:28 > 0:06:30ROBOTIC NOISES

0:06:30 > 0:06:35- Stan's found a skipping rope already.- Nice work, Stan!

0:06:35 > 0:06:37ROBOTIC NOISES

0:06:37 > 0:06:41Let's show the mayor how strong this bridge is.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47- Whoa, are you sure it can take this?

0:06:47 > 0:06:51- I think so.- Go, Stan!

0:06:52 > 0:06:55- - Is that meant to happen? - No!

0:06:57 > 0:06:58Look out, Stan!

0:06:58 > 0:07:01ROBOTIC NOISES SPLASH

0:07:01 > 0:07:04SPLASH

0:07:04 > 0:07:09- Stan, are you OK? - I think so.- Oh, dear.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear,

0:07:12 > 0:07:15I was worried that bridge wasn't strong enough.

0:07:15 > 0:07:21- Er... There's been some sort of mistake.- Well, can you put it right?

0:07:21 > 0:07:26Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to have this bridge dismantled.

0:07:26 > 0:07:31- Not after everyone's hard work! We can sort it out, can't we?

0:07:31 > 0:07:35- Yes, of course, sure we can. - Of course we can.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Right, I'm just nipping home to dry off my mayoral chain.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43If you can get it sorted by then, that would be... splendid.

0:07:44 > 0:07:49I don't understand. The plans were perfect.

0:07:49 > 0:07:54I checked them twice, and then again, and then 25 more times.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58- Well, that certainly sounds like enough checking.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00- It looks the same as on the plan.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04Except for the dust and the bangs and the bits that have broken off...

0:08:04 > 0:08:08Yes, thank you. - Wait a minute.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12According to the plan, there are meant to be four cables.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14One at each corner, yes.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17It's important that the weight is carried evenly.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19But there are only three!

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Hold on, I'm sure there were four.

0:08:24 > 0:08:28Someone must have taken one, and I think I know who.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35Stan, where did you put your skipping rope?

0:08:35 > 0:08:36ROBOTIC NOISES

0:08:36 > 0:08:42Stan, where did you find a giant skipping rope so quickly?

0:08:42 > 0:08:44ROBOTIC NOISES

0:08:44 > 0:08:45Ha-ha, I knew it!

0:08:47 > 0:08:52- Ah, you mean Stan's skipping rope... - ..is the missing suspension cable.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55- Well done, Felix.- Ha-ha-ha.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59Stan, didn't you know that was an important part of the bridge?

0:08:59 > 0:09:05- I don't think he did. It was an accident.- Oh, definitely.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08When you've had as many accidents as I have, you get

0:09:08 > 0:09:09to know one when you see it.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11ROBOTIC NOISES

0:09:13 > 0:09:17But three cables simply can't carry as much weight as four.

0:09:17 > 0:09:22Oh, so more cables can carry more weight. Got it.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26Well, now that's sorted out, we need to get the bridge fixed,

0:09:26 > 0:09:28before the mayor gets back.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Better move fast, here he comes!

0:09:33 > 0:09:38Bala bala boom boom! That's why you need robot builders.

0:09:45 > 0:09:51Splendid work, it looks as good as new! But is it safe?

0:09:51 > 0:09:52Absolutely.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56By looking at the plans, we found the mistake and corrected it.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59And I can prove it. Hey, Stan!

0:09:59 > 0:10:00ROBOTIC NOISES

0:10:06 > 0:10:13- Whoo! Hee-hee-hee! Nice swinging. - Well, I think that proves it.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16Well done, Zam, your bridge works perfectly.

0:10:16 > 0:10:20Strong enough for giant Stan to swing on.

0:10:20 > 0:10:24That reminds me, I've got some swing fixing to do back home.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26- See you soon!- See you!- Bye!

0:10:29 > 0:10:35More ropes means my swing can take my weight without breaking.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39Woo-ha-hoo! Whee! Hee-hee-hee-hee! Bye-bye!

0:10:40 > 0:10:42# Bala bala boom boom. #
